[QUOTE="Rob France, post: 8840301, member: 688799"] Hello All, I have a largish Motorhome and I like extremely loud music 😁 So ive installed a pretty decent upgrade on the audio. But its giving me problems. The sub has had to be installed in what was an enclosure for a drawer and also a seat. When I first did this it sounded awful, so I removed the panel the sub is fitted to and changed it from the light weight board used in campers for MDF (the rest of the cabinet is still light weight board and it cant be changed due to aesthetics.. Still really bad. So I sealed all the unsealed corners with sealant. This nearly blew the cabinet apart, so ive fitted a grill with speaker cloth where the drawer used to be. This made it somewhat better. So now its acceptable at medium volume. But when I crank it up im getting bad vibrations. Ive just lined the inside of the cabinet with sound deadening stuff but this made no difference. It seems to be the cabinet and to be honest, the entire side of the van that is vibrating. So does anyone have experience with loud music and motorhomes? Any ideas for deadening the vibrations? Or do I just need to calm it down? I really want to avoid the last option! Cheers! Rob [/QUOTE]
